Ah right. Gotta continue letting them get away with whatever they want or we might hurt the bottom line. This thinking is part of why we're here.

Sure you can. We could limit the work week to 32 hours, pay higher salaries such that homes and goods are affordable again.

Isn't this standard procedure for blogs/journalism? I thought the quotes are used to imply a term is not being used because the author thinks it's true, but rather to indicate that that's what the topic is centered on.

In a state where corporatism dominates everything and the reins are minimal. We allow corporate A to get away with more than we deem appropriate for the sake of preserving the bottom line. This gives them leverage to do it again and again or to intensify. It also showcases to corporation B that this abuse is at an apparent acceptable threshold, with room to probably get away with a bit more. It's an abusive cycle that will continue to demolish the well being of more and more people until proper reins are put in place.

No dude. Sound and air pressure are cues as well.

You are correct in that numbers leading into Covid rose dramatically and started to fall off over the last, I wanna say, year and a half or so. Still larger than before. I do not have anything against hiring and firing on a by need basis. However, I do think that's gone too far in this instance. When you have 15-20k people being let go at multiple organizations, there's something wrong with the decision process in the first place imo.

I'm aware of this. This is the first time I'm aware they managed to get a pilot system and I think that shows great promise. Also, people are noticing more and more, and pushing back.

What? A cue being solely sufficient to make a decision and a cue bei g used in conjunction with other things are two separate things.

The day that happens, I'd rather die

Mismatched as in incorrect resistance?

I'm not referring to the people not giving anything. More people will leave that originally watched ads.

Right. My point is that their response will have a large impact on other demographics. Their attempt is likely to backfire over time.

Bitcoin is not the only currency. I'm not saying faster transactions are active, but that is a goal for some currencies no? Wasn't aware if that first Europe. What about settle time then? That is, time it takes to verify a major transaction is legit?

I would it expect to be bi-partisan. What reasons do we have for crypto? Security, faster transaction time, independent of government (more of a global currency), taxes too high, transparency, etc.
